All ye naysayers! :mad: Records are there to be snot-klapped. I sincerely wish the Tigers good fortune in their chase. May it be an epic success. Cool heads and they have the ability to do it and send India packing.

yep, 300 is the new 250.
 
302 is chaseable from Bangladesh's perspective.

Ashwina&Jadeja fetched over 7rpo against ZIM (fixing alert :D ). BD who play spin better should logically get more runs from them. I think the Indian seamers will go ok in the 2nd session.

Fully agree! It's not an imposing total by any means and they have the players to do it. The beauty is is that there's no burden of expectation on them. They're rank underdogs and they know it which means they should be able to go out there and express themselves on what looks like a fantastic batting pitch. If anyone of the top 4 gets in, they have the finishers down the order to get over the line. They just can't find themselves 60/4 after 15 overs though.
 
Did that Aussie commentator just say "They have to take this deep"...?
 
Yadav to Tamim Iqbal, OUT, Yadav has got his man as Tamim, chasing after this length delivery which just nips away, ends up catching the outside edge of Tamim's flashing blade, with Dhoni taking a good, low catch to his left to take it. Tamim is not convinced though as he wants the umpires to review whether this one indeed carried cleanly to the Indian captain. Shows the ball went in cleanly upon second viewing. Tamim has to go

Tamim Iqbal c †Dhoni b Yadav 25 (25b 4x4 0x6) SR: 100.00

Haha, I was going to post something similar, only for a wicket to fall. At least it wasn't me that jinxed them. Nice one AT, nice one! :p

AT claimed the first wicket :p.

The one thing I have noticed is that a lot of the underdog teams have a lower order that can smash it around better then the top8 teams.
 
Since India is playing, anyone know if the IPL will have another round of auctions. There are a few players that have performed well in the World Cup and would probably want to make some money.

Bagnladesh are the enigma of international cricket. They resemble our Test side 4Amla, 5AB, 6JP. In their case ODIs - 4Mahmudullah, 5Sakib, 6MushyRahim. In Tests that trio goes lower with the brilliant Monimul Haque normally a #3 coming in at four sometimes.

The Proteas will have a tough time later when they tour. 3Monimul, 4Mahmudullah, 5Sakib, 6Rahim. Tamim on his day can fire from the top. They have five decent batsmen, all young. Bangladesh will be a top four Test side sometime in the next 5 years.
